    Letting a somewhat rare D-Pat go on ebay..

    Well, the time as come. I have owned this bottle for nearly 11 years, and the time has come to say goodbye. The bottle is a 1944 D-Pat Coke from Taft, Calif. For the serious Coca-Cola collector, I was once told that there were only about 125 of these known to exist, and that made it rare as...

    Farr soda bottle ... Reno, Nevada

    Picked this up yesterday. Does anyone know anything about it? I like it a lot, I just wish that the label wasn't so faded. Also, I picked up a "double-dash" Pepsi yesterday too (the one you see in the background.) Is there anything special about those? The collection...

    Found same bottle that appears in "The Man Who Fell to Earth" (1976)

    This was just way too good not to share. So, I was watching The Man Who Fell to Earth last night on Netflix for the very first time in my entire life, and then comes on a scene (around the 40 minute mark) with a familiar-looking (to me) green bottle. I couldn't believe it. About 3 months...

    Help me identify this bottle that I found in the desert!

    A few weeks ago, I was out in the desert...searching for bottles yet again. I just happened to come across this little guy: As soon as I saw it, I knew that it was special. The fact that the cork was still in it I found quite intriguing. Here is what I can tell you...

    Recommend me an ACL book

    I am looking for a good book on various ACL's and their values. An emphasis on bottles from the far western and southwestern states would be a huge plus.

    About 3 weeks ago, I went on family vacation in the Owens Valley and environs. We made a stop at the railroad museum in Laws, California. It was actually my 4th visit to this museum - I first visited in 2002. However, this was the first time that I had seen their "bottle house" exhibit. Here...

    The soda shards of our lives

    Tell me about the one that got away, and why it hurts. Now, I have only been involved with this hobby for about 15 months, so bear with me as the following story is my best example to date. This past April while on a camping/road trip, the girlfriend and I were looking for old exposed...
